Hi, a friend of mine has got the Problem with his v50 with 320 mm brake, that after installing new rotors with pads and driving for a couple of tousend kilometer, that the front brake starts to vibrate, when hot. I feel like you have the same Problem. Is it fixed now? What was your Solution ? Thank you a lot in advance!
Hello, yes this was exactly the problem that caused me to do this. I rebuilt both calipers and it is an absolute dream to drive now no matter how much im on the brakes 🙂 i thought the rotors were warped but it was only happening when warm, i was also getting a vibration if i had been in traffic on the motorway then set off again and this was the issue. Less than £40 kit for both front calipers has completely solved it 🙂 thankyou for watching
No BUT they are only 3000 miles old and there is no visible wear. When i did the n/s caliper i did have to change the discs as they were scorched. Hopefully yours are in good condition so you can reuse them but if not I'd change them to be safe 🙂
I've got the same calipers do you know what brand they are . I'm about to upgrade my brake disc and pads to brembo but I don't seem to be able to get 320mm front disc with just groves have you any idea where I might be able to get some 320mm front brake disc with just groves and not drill and grove. Great work by the way..
This v50 is beautiful,keep doing,what you doing,thanks
Copper slip corrodes aluminium, that’s the white corrosion where the slider boots go in
